FWIW, the way you frequently use this phrase doesn't come over as
actually being respectful.

And why on earth would that be a good idea? These bugs need to be fixed
- we're actually behind on that front. Are we now really trying to

up rules that say "one review for one commit" or something, it's
something entirely else to try to assign tasks to them.
